As I understand it, when I make a new CMYK swatch in InDesign and type my recipe in, Adobe converts it to LAB and that is the number that is used behind the scenes to convert to RGB or to different CMYK profiles. Curiosity question: does the software reference the ICC profile that is set as the working space in order to make that initial CMYK to LAB conversion? Also, is it known if the software preserves and uses the numbers to the right of the decimal points for CMYK and LAB values, or does it all get rounded off? And finally, going far into the weeds: is it known what rendering intent is used?
